Stone IRS and Espresso IRS?

Espresso is still in the cooler at WF Montrose. Regular is in the back. No limit as far as I could tell.

 

WF Sugar Land has them in the back. Got some there, yesterday, and had a friend pick up 2 each for me from Specs on Westheimer & Kirkwood. I'm set.

 

Spec's Midtown said they were getting 10 cases of each Friday mid-afternoon.

 

I'm not saying distribution in Houston is slow, but both versions were available in Singapore before Houston saw their first bottles.

 

Gabriels superstore in SA has cases of each on the floor.

 

Any word if Smith St. ever got their cases?

 

i was there a couple hours ago and they had a sign up that said something to the effect of " EIRS and IRS coming soon," nothing more specific.

 

I went there around 3:30 and they had plenty of Espresso but only a few IRS left (but im assuming theres more in the back not yet stocked)

 

Yup, went at 5ish and it was actually the opposite when I got there (all IRS only one EIRS), but as I was browsing they got another case out of the back of each

 

Nobi just tapped EIRS.

 

Whaaaaat??? WTH is the deal with beer distro down there? I am getting nervous about the upcoming move. Damn, you can go to any decent store in FW and those two brews are EVERYWHERE!!!!

 

Welcome to Houston.

 

Pleased to see both were still at Specs downtown today and none of this "in the back" crap either.

 

Galveston Specs was fully stocked with these.
Glad to see it finally out everywhere

 

I am in the same boat. Moving back to Houston from Dallas in July and I feel like it is going to be a quest to find bottles.

 

It really isn't too difficult to find bottles in Houston. Yes, Spec's downtown does sell out quick, but once you learn the other great stores in the area you won't have as many issues. Distribution to Houston can be slow at times but the beer will get here eventually, most of the time. There are some great BAs here in Houston, and everyone is usually willing to help each other out.

 

There is a shit-ton of IRS at Bunker HEB today

 

World Market by Baybrook Mall has these nice Stone IRS glasses for $4.99.

They also have the stone IPA glasses for the same price.

 

I saw both at Specs Midtown around lunchtime today.

 

More Stone IRS on the shelf at Specs in Clear Lake (Bay Area Blvd.)
Still about a half of a case left when I was there at lunch today.
